Chapter 169: Dragon and Tiger



Yu Jinzhi almost vomited the food he had just put in his mouth.

"Could you please not be so disgusting."

Wen Hao glanced at them and silently put down the tea in his hand. He suddenly said something.

"Really, you don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is."

But I don't know who he was talking about.

At the gate of Duke Anguo’s Mansion.

Jiang, Liu, Hua Lingxuan, Hua Lingyi, and Hua Wanru were all waiting at the gate early. It can be said that they were eagerly waiting.

I waited and waited, but still no one came back.

"Why haven't they arrived yet?" Jiang frowned, looked into the distance, and asked the servant next to her.

"Didn't you say we've already entered the city?"

The servant bowed and said helplessly.

"Today there are too many people in and out of the city. The number of soldiers patrolling the city alone has doubled. I guess the master's carriage is stuck on the road!"

Liu and Hua Wanru, one on the left and one on the right, hurried forward to comfort Jiang, "Don't worry, sister. The Duke and his men will surely be here soon. Let's wait a little longer."

"We have finally reached the city."

Jiang nodded, but she was still very anxious.

The master and Qingqing had been away for two months. They were finally back. She was very excited and wanted to see them as soon as possible, especially her baby Qingqing.

Liangliang and Chen Jing, a pig and a little baby, all looked up, very excited.

Both of them are Qingqing's playmates, and they all hope that she can come back early so that they can play with them.

Hua Changjue and his companions' carriage turned from the corner.

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately. Hua Lingxuan and Hua Lingyi went out of the door to greet them.

Hua Qingqing was in the carriage and saw her family. Her eyes immediately turned red!

She walked out of the car and waved at them!

"Mother, mother."

"Brother, sister! Little girl!"

Jiang's tears immediately flowed down.

"Hey, mother's little baby. You're finally back!"

As soon as the carriage stopped, Hua Qingqing jumped off the carriage, wanting to jump into Jiang's arms.

Jiang was startled and was about to answer it.

Hua Lingyi took a step ahead of Jiang and reached out to hug Hua Qingqing.

"Qingqing, you're so fat now! If you jump down, you'll hit your mother!"

Hua Qingqing pouted!

"The baby is thin! Not fat!"

Seeing her aggrieved, Jiang thought that Qingqing must have suffered a lot outside. After not seeing her for two months, she did look less fat. Her round little face now had a pointed chin and her neck was longer.

She immediately took Qingqing from Hua Lingyi's arms out of concern.

"Our baby is not fat, mommy will hug you."

Hua Qingqing smiled with her eyes curved, hugged Jiang's neck, and acted coquettishly.

"Mom, baby misses you so much."

"The baby can't sleep well!"

Hua Lingyi curled his lips, "At the beginning, no one knew who ran out of the house on their own. It made everyone anxious and worried."

Hua Qingqing froze, and suddenly remembered something. She secretly glanced at her mother's face.

Sure enough, Jiang also remembered it. Her face darkened, and she said to Hua Qingqing with a fake smile.

"Baby is back this time, are you still running?"

Hua Qingqing quickly shook her head. "The baby won't run away!"

"Mother is a little skeptical!" Jiang said with a smile.

Hua Qingqing couldn't help but tremble. She quickly stretched out her hand and said to Hua Lingxuan next to her.

"Big brother, give me a hug."

Hua Lingxuan shook his head with amusement and reached out to hug her, but Jiang dodged him.

"Let mother hold you!"

"But, baby, you don't look very well. I guess you didn't eat well. There's something wrong with your stomach. It needs to be adjusted!"

Hua Qingqing nodded quickly.

Hua Wanru also came up to examine her.

Jiang continued, "Then eat vegetarian food for a few days to help your stomach."

Hua Qingqing was stunned and her face immediately fell.

They were talking and laughing and went into the yard together.

Hua Changjue got off the carriage, but no one paid any attention to him. He smiled bitterly. He was not popular at all!

I could only follow behind him silently and enter the yard.

In the afternoon, the whole family dressed up and went to the palace to attend the emperor's sixtieth birthday.

The old emperor has been on the throne for many years. He has always adhered to the principle of frugality and not wasting. Therefore, even on his birthday, there was no excessive extravagance.

In the entire palace, several major halls were decorated to look festive, while other places remained the same as they were.

This birthday banquet will be held in Changning Palace.

Because Hua Changjue was a duke, his seat in the hall was very near the front, and after they sat down, an official came over and greeted Hua Changjue.

Soon, Jiang Shucheng and his family arrived, and the two families talked warmly together.

Jiang Shucheng pulled Hua Changjue to a corner and whispered.

"When did my brother-in-law come back?"

“Just arrived today!”

Jiang Shucheng nodded, his eyes full of complexity, "Be careful in a moment!"

Hua Changjue's eyes flickered slightly, and he was about to ask again when he heard the eunuch outside shouting.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

The two of them hurried to their respective positions.

Everybody stood up.

Following behind the old emperor were the crown prince and the eldest grandson.

The old emperor reached the top seat and sat down.

Everyone saluted in unison.

"Your Highness!"

The old emperor is in a good mood today. He waved his hand.

"Alright! My dears, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone sat down. The birthday banquet officially began.

The first to come were envoys from various countries who presented gifts.

In addition to the Great Jin in the north, the Great Sheng Dynasty was surrounded by the Oirat in the northwest, Annan in the southwest, Japan in the east, and Luzon in the south.

A eunuch shouted, "The Crown Prince of the Great Jin Kingdom, Meng Hana, is here to see you."

Hua Changjue didn't expect that the first person to come up was from the Great Jin Kingdom, and that was the Great Jin Prince Meng Hana who was connected with the King of the South.

Meng Hana, about thirty years old, had her hair braided down her back, dark skin, and was about the same height as Hua Lingyi, both of them were big and strong.

The moment they came in, everyone felt like a moving mountain.

He strode in, followed by eight strong men.

Four strong men were carrying a huge cage-like object covered with cloth. No one knew what was inside.

After looking around arrogantly, Meng Hana bowed to the old emperor.

"We, the Great Jin, offer a fierce tiger to the Emperor of the Great Sheng Dynasty, wishing him to remain as vigorous as ever."

All the officials of the Dasheng Dynasty frowned.

Monthana didn't care about other people's expressions and waved his hand.

The person behind him took the cloth off directly.

Everyone saw that inside the cage was an old tiger, lying sickly.
